> GCS comes across as a much better thought-out and built product

I've worked with AWS and GCS for a while, and I have the opposite opinion. GCS is what you get if you let engineers dictate to customers how they are allowed to do work, and then give them shit interfaces, poor documentation, and more complexity than adds value.

There's "I engineered the ultimate engineery thing", and then there's "I made something people actually like using".
